Aha! This is what a toner is supposed be!

Just purchased my second bottle of this amazing product, because I couldn't bear to run out of it. I never understood why anyone used a toner until now. I apply this with my hands (I have sensitive skin and rosacea, so cotton pads can irritate my face, and I'm not into pain) over my face and neck, including eye area after cleansing. My skin says aaaahhhh. My face feels calmed, softened, hydrated, and refreshed. I still need my BHA, serum, and moisturizer, but using this toner is the best part.

Love!

I'm turning 40 this year, have dry breakout prone skin.Used Beautypedia recommended toners for well over a year but none of those satisfied my parched skin.
Started using PC's 1% Retinol about a month ago so I've decided to give this toner a try.
My skin is soft, happy & this significantly helps with the dryness. I doubt my skin would have tolerated PC's 1% Retinol with the toners I was using at the time. I'm certain that this may be the best toner in the universe! Thank you, Paula's Choice :)

Impressive!

Wow! This toner is delivers. I have mild rosacea symptoms. No bumps, but constant redness on my chin, around my mouth and nose and this toner soothes and calms the redness. I purchased samples of this toner, the BHA 1% exfoliant and the Skin Recovery Daily moisturizer. They all feel wonderful on my skin and are quickly absorbed. My redness is significantly reduced and my skin literally glows. I will be purchasing full sized bottles of these products.

Best toner ever!

I love this stuff. I love the texture and how it removes last of my makeup, reduces the redness in my cheeks, and in general makes me skin look and feel amazing. I was using this along with the antioxidant serum (which is also great), but my dermatologist said they were both full of antioxidants and I didn't need both so I decided to just use this one. Great product that I recommend to everyone! Well done, Paula!

WHAT THE ...!!!!!

The title of my review is what I said when I woke up this morning after using this toner for the first time last night. I woke up to super soft acne free skin . My nose, which was bright red and very angry (as always) when I went to bed last night is the same color as the rest of my face. I don't know what you did, Paula's Choice, but you did it right! Now excuse me while I go order a backup of this product!

Ab Fab

I don't know why but I love this toner. Normally I do not like milky toners because I feel that they don't clean my skin after cleansing or they feel sort of greasy or something...so when I tried this I was shocked at how much I liked it. I ordered the entire Skin Recovery line tonight because I cannot find any reason NOT to love all the products I have tried (my skin loves them too)...all I can say is...Goodbye super-expensive, useless products that haven't worked. So glad I found PC!

Great toner!

This toner is the best! It's like a nice drink for my skin after cleansing - especially in the winter. It calms and noticeably smooths skin making it ready for the rest of the routine. I previously tried the Moisture Boost toner, but that one seemed to burn a little and leave redness from irritation. But not this one, this is a keeper! I have combo, breakout-prone skin and my husband has dry, slightly sensitive skin with redness and it works beautifully for both of us!

Amazing

I use this mornings after I shave and it soothes my sensitive, dry skin. I also use it at night to hydrate and give my skin a cocktail of additional antioxidants. I really love this milky toner. It has been a staple in my routine for months and looks like it will be permanent!

Great toner for most skin types. Light, but moisturizing. Not sticky. I go between this one and resist toner. Both are amazing.

Love it

I just started using samples of this product to help combat dry, flaking eyelids due to use of PC's 1% retinol. It is the only product I tried that did not sting my eyelids (I tried Hydralight Toner and Moisture boost Oil- normally those products do not sting my eyelids!). I just ordered the full size to help my skin handle the retinol product. I have acne prone skin and areas that are both oily and flaky, but when I used this toner on those parts of my face it did not go on greasy at all.

My Favorite Toner

Ok, I have Extra Sensitive Rosacea affected Skin and this toner doesn't irritate it! Nor does Hydralight but while I like Hydralight toner, I love this one! I just wish it came in a spray bottle with a fine mist. Since it doesn't I tend to use a different PC recommended toner but am thinking of pouring your product into a fine mist bottle until you all adopt my suggestion! :") I value PC's commitment to skin care and my male skin has been transformed, I have radient handsome skin! Thanks PC

Wonderful!

This toner is awesome. I know a lot of people when they think of toners confuse it with astringents and think they will dry and tighten their skin. This does just the opposite. I LOVE this stuff, after I wash my face I do a few other nightly routine things so by the time I sit down to do my exfoliant, serum and moisturizer my skin is kinda dry. This rehydrates it beautifully to accept all the other goodness I'm about to slap on. ;) You couldn't pry this out of my co dead hands, love it that much

hydrogenated castor oil & hydrogenated lecithin?

i am not sure why there's hydrogenated this & that.
otherwise e a good product.

Customer Service Response

Replied on: Monday, November 24, 2014

Hello, and thank you for your comments! Hydrogenation in skincare is a process that helps stabilize some of the beneficial ingredients and keep them from going bad over time; though hydrogenation is not good for products that are ingested, it is safe for use in topical products. We hope this helps answer any questions you might have!

It's fantastic

I use this toner mostly at night, or whenever my skin has gotten really dehydrated. My skin is overall normal so this product is actually rich enough for me to not really need a moisturizer afterward, but it absorbs FAST & doesn't sit on my face. I usually just pour a bit into my palms & pat it on b/c I feel like using a cotton pad absorbs too much of it. It makes my face feel instantly fresher. If you have hydration problems, even with more normal skin, try this, seriously!

My Holy Grail Toner

I never really used toners. The only other one that I used for a long period of time left me dry and thirsting for more moisturizer. This milky toner leaves my skin just as "wet" as when I washed it, and I can see dehydration wrinkles disappear as I put it on. It's so important to my skin routine that I'll use it on my forearms, and pat some more on my face when I want to really heal my skin (I have eczema). Will repurchase forever! Please make a larger container, like the 16oz. cleanser!

Calming and soothing

Perfect toner for my Extra Sensitive Rosacea affected skin. I use this toner after cleansing with Skin Recovery Softening Cream Cleanser and my skin feels so good after using these two products, calmed and soothed. NO redness or irritation even with my extra sensitive rosacea affected skin. Paula really knows what she is doing! Thank you Paula. These were the only two products I ordered but, now I am a believer and just spent $400. for the rest of my skin care needs. Will report back soon.

Excellent toner!

I've never used a toner before trying the SR toner. I really didn't think there was a need for one. But after using the SR toner, I will never go without using a toner (this one of course). I have very sensitive skin with some mild redness and mostly dry. My skin has never felt so calm and smooth! I could feel the difference after the very first use. I will definitely be reordering this one!

Sources to support the claims made for Skin Recovery ENRICHED CALMING Toner

DIRECTIONS: After cleansing, apply toner to a cotton pad and gently stroke over face and neck. Do not rinse. Follow with the rest of your morning or evening skincare routine. For daytime, finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen rated SPF 25 or greater.

Paula has always recommended toners that are well-formulated. Toners can be a great after-cleansing step to be sure you’ve removed all of your makeup. When properly formulated, they soothe skin and add hydrating ingredients to make skin softer, not to mention they’re another leave-on source for antioxidants and other ingredients that improve skin’s healthy functioning.

All of our toners restore skin, help remove last traces of makeup, are alcohol- and fragrance-free, and contain no unnecessary irritants such as menthol, peppermint, and citrus oils. They are great as an adjunct to a more thorough cleansing routine, especially post-workout or in hot/humid climates. Even more significantly, they go beyond the basics by offering skin benefits you can see and feel.

Resist Advanced Replenishing Toner is a specialized formula designed to supply normal to dry aging skin with a broad range of ingredients it needs to produce healthy collagen while reducing wrinkles.

Skin Recovery Enriched Calming Toner for normal to very dry skin is an excellent choice for those who need more help protecting their skin from environmental damage or dryness.

This is a great option for dry to very dry skin, extremely sun damaged skin, or those dealing with eczema or rosacea accompanied by dry skin.

Moisture Boost Essential Hydrating Toner contains ingredients that help soothe and restore normal to dry skin, plus it includes a greater amount of glycerin, a key ingredient to make dry skin look and feel better. It also contains a broad range of ingredients that aid the barrier repair process so those with dry skin (or normal skin with occasional dry patches) will receive even more benefit from their Paula’s Choice moisturizer and/or specialty product. Moisture Boost Essential Hydrating Toner feels lighter than our Skin Recovery Enriched Calming Toner, yet still provides an array of antioxidants, anti-irritants, and skin-protecting ingredients. To get the benefits of both toners for normal to dry skin, you can use Moisture Boost Essential Hydrating Toner in the morning and Skin Recovery Enriched Calming Toner in the evening.

Skin Balancing Pore-Reducing Toner for normal to oily/combination skin is excellent for protecting skin from environmental damage or dryness. In addition, its cell-communicating ingredients can, in theory, help balance skin so its oily areas do not worsen or lead to reddened or blemished skin. Skin Balancing Pore-Reducing Toner uses a more complex formulation than our Hydralight Healthy Skin Refreshing Toner, and helps restore normal cell function.

Hydralight Healthy Skin Refreshing Toner is an excellent choice for normal to oily/combination skin. It provides a weightless finish, and although it feels very light, it supplies skin with potent antioxidants and anti-irritants. Hydralight Healthy Skin Refreshing Toner is a great option for those who want more protection and a soothing, soft, feeling on their skin, particularly those with sensitive skin.
